Further Strengthening Two Service Hubs and Expanded Service Scenarios and Product Empowerment

In 2024, a series of favorable national policies injected strong momentum into the development of the healthcare industry.

During the reporting period, family doctor services under the collaboration between health care and claim settlement served over 2 million customers.
